What does the Listen and Answer — Facts worksheet cover?
It practises answering about an information text read aloud — 2 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core SL.K.2: Ask a question when something read aloud did not make sense. The instruction to pupils is “Read the text, then answer the questions”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.K.2 — SL.K.2, in the Speaking & Listening domain for Kindergarten. The published standard reads: “Confirm understanding of a text read aloud or information presented orally or through other media by asking and answering questions about key details and requesting clarification if something is not understood.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.

25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
